Letra da Música Down Once More/Down This Murderer Fantasma da Ópera

Where did he take her?
Come with me, monsieur
I will take you to him
But remember, keep your hand at the level of your eyes
I'll go with you
No, meg, you must stay here
Come with me, monsieurNoDown once more to the dungeons of my black despair
Down we plunge to the prison of my mind
Down that path into darkness
Deep as hellWhy, you ask
Was I bound and chained
In this cold and dismal place?
Not for any mortal sin
But the wickedness of my abhorrent faceTrack down this murderer
He must be found
Track down this murderer
He must be foundHounded out by everyone
Met with hatred everywhere
No kind words from anyone
No compassion anywhereChristine
Why, why?Your hand at the level of your eyesYour hand at the level of your eyesYour hand at the level of your eyesThis is as far as I dare goThank youHave you gorged yourself at last in your lust for blood?
Am I now to be prey to your lust for flesh?That fate, which condemns me to wallow in blood
Has also denied me the joys of the flesh
This face, the infection which poisons our love
This face, which earned a mother's fear and loathing
A mask, my first unfeeling scrap of clothingPity comes too late
Turn around and face your fate
An eternity of this before your eyesThis haunted face holds no horror for me now
It's in your soul that the true distortion liesWait! I think, my dear, we have a guest
Sir
Raoul
This is indeed an unparalleled delight
I had rather hoped that you would come
And now my wish comes true
You have truly made my night!Let me goFree her
Do what you like, only free her
Have you no pity?Your lover makes a passionate pleaPlease, raoul, it's uselessI love her
Does that mean nothing?
I love her
Show some compassionThe world showed no compassion to me!Christine
Christine
Let me see herBe my guest, sir
Monsieur, I bid you welcome
Did you think that I would harm her?
Why would I make her pay for the sins which are yours?Order your fine horses now
Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes
Nothing can save you now, except perhaps ChristineStart a new life with me
Buy his freedom with your love
Refuse me, and you send your lover to his death
This is the choice,
This is the point of no returnThe tears I might have shed for your dark fate,
Grow cold and turn to tears of hateChristine, forgive me, please forgive me
I did it all for you, and all for nothingFarewell, my fallen idol and false friend
We had such hopes, and now those hopes are shatteredToo late for turning back, too late for prayers and useless pitySay you love him, and my life is overAll hope of cries for help
No point in fighting
For either way you choose, you cannot winEither way you choose, he has to winSo do you end your days with me
Or do you send him to his grave?Why make her lie to you to save me?Angel of music
Past the point of no return
Christine say no!
Don't throw your life away for my sakeWho deserved this?The final thresholdHis life is now the prize which you must earn!Why do you curse mercy?I fought so hard to free youAngel of musicYou've passed the point of no returnYou deceived me
I gave you my mind blindlyYou try my patience
Make your choice!Pitiful creature of darkness
What kind of life have you known?
God give me courage to show you
You are not aloneTrack down this murderer, he must be found
Hunt out this animal, who runs to groundTake her, forget me
Forget all of this
Leave me alone forget all you've seen
Go now don't let them find you
Take the boat, swear to me, never to tell
The secret you know, of the angel in hellGo now – go now and leave me!Masquerade
Paper faces on parade
Masquerade
Hide your face so the world will never find youChristine, I love youSay you'll share with me one love, one lifetime
Say the word and I will follow you
Share each day with me, each night, each morning.You alone, can make my song take flight
It's over now, the music of the night
